In his 60-page[6] affidavit, he states that the COS trained him in psychological techniques to create obedience through the use of terror. Tabayoyon gave examples of people being driven insane by the "higher levels" of Hubbard's teaching and even said that this is sometimes done intentionally. In the affidavit, he stated under oath that the base is stockpiling weapons and ammunition.[5]

Tabayoyon stated that Scientology staff were instructed in how to act around Tom Cruise, when he visited the Gilman Hot Springs compound.[7] According to Tabayoyon, members were only allowed to talk to Cruise if he talked to them first, Cruise had to "originate the communications."[7] Those that violated this rule were given "conditioning."[6][7] Tabayoyon stated in his affidavit that Gold Base guards possessed shotguns, automatic weapons, and semi-automatic assault rifles.[5] The Church of Scientology has questioned the veracity of reports of former members Tabayoyon and Dennis Erlich and suggested they "distorted" some of the incidents they described.[8]
